The compact, wireless, portable speaker takes its name from the inbuilt carabiner clip that hooks on to pretty much anything: your shirt, your backpack – or even the pocket of your jeans, making it the perfect companion on any excursion.

The rugged construction is designed to resist wear-and-tear in the toughest of situations, while the speaker’s durable double injection housing allows it to land safely and softly, even when tossed about in your backpack.

The JBL Clip also comes with JBL’s SoundClear® Echo Cancellation Speakerphone System and backlit controls so users can enjoy clear, hands-free wireless phone conferencing while on the go.

“We found so many great possibilities with the ultra-compact speaker design that we ended up creating a full-bodied sound system that could also facilitate in wireless hands-free conferencing. The addition of the carabiner clip design was a natural addition to the speaker, enabling music lovers to take the speaker anywhere and everywhere with them.”

The JBL Clip’s 1.5” driver delivers a stunning balance of loudness and bass performance, with a 160 Hz to 20kHz frequency range, and its built-in rechargeable battery lets you play for 5 hours of high quality, hands-free listening.

Not only is the JBL Clip the perfect plug-and-play companion for your smartphone or tablet thanks to its 3.5mm cable, it also features premium Bluetooth® 4.0 technology that makes it easy to set up and stream wirelessly from any tablet or smartphone.
